Todd Kramer, a non-fungible token (NFT) collector, tweeted that his collection of Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs worth $1.9 million was "hacked," and then said NFT marketplace OpenSea had "frozen" the assets for him. He had clicked on a link that appeared to be a genuine NFT dapp. But it turned out to be a phishing attack—and 16 of his NFTs were stolen. “I been hacked,” he wrote. “All my apes gone.” 

The NFTs stolen from Kramer’s collection included eight Bored Apes, seven Mutant Apes—generated by exposing a Bored Ape to “mutant serum”— and a single Clonex NFT. Per Dappradar’s NFT Value Estimator, the total value of the Bored Apes stolen is around $1.9 million.
